BATIK'S DAY

The beautiful BATIK is worn by Indonesian people especially today.
We are accustomed with Batik since we were a baby. YES ! when we were born, Batik cloth is used as a baby wrap and with Batik too, mother carries their kids.
Special and meaningfull Batik will be worn by people who will get married. ( Javanesse style Wedding ). And...believe it or not, Batik is used to cover somebody who died before the funeral service. So.... Batik is just a part of our lives.

I myself, love Batik. I am proud to wear it ( night and day ) LOL... 'coz many my pajamas are made of cotton Batik which is so soft and I had quite a few collections to wear for formal and informal occasions.

Since 2005, I collected Batik just because I want to make something out of it. I had my Grandma's and my Mom's Batik, Just like you can imagine, that I bought Batik on every . exhibitions I've attended. I never had enough of it. OH my !
I made lots of stuff from Batik. Dolls, pillow covers, Pin cushions... and more...

I learn to make batik too... and really like it. It is time consuming, but for me it become some kind of therapy to relax and enjoy my time.
Some day, I will make my own style of Batik.... I can't wait how it will come up!
There are lots of steps to make Batik. It takes passions and persistence. Sure it is not easy.. but the result is always stunning!

Batik is known originally from Java, but there are places spread all around Indonesia that carries Batik with their own style. I guess it will be my plan to visit the all those places. Because they all have the design, color and style of their own.

Enjoy the beautiful BATIK
Luv,
